If you are going on a very good varmint hunt you will need a rifle that shoots ammo you can afford. A 223 works very well and you can buy ammo and components cheap. I love the 22-250 but the brass is much higher than the 223. Bullets, powder, and primers are the same but you load less powder in the 223. I can load 254 rounds of 223 per pound of powder compared to 200 per pound with the 22-250.

In one good town I shot 757 rounds of 22-250 in one day.
